30 Minutes a day

Strength Play Nature

Coach
Rock Hancock

I'm a busy parent and a gym owner who doesn't always have time to workout myself. Most of my clients are busy, too. This program uses the same strategy I use with all my clients to help fit movement into their day.

Do you have 30 minutes? Great. Perform the whole workout. Do you have 10 minutes? Choose 1 of the 3 microworkouts (ground movement, strength/skill, or circuit). Breaking up your movement routine is a great way to fit movement into our lives and still progress toward health and fitness goals.

Why natural movement? It is a great way to build a base level of fitness. You will do everything from crawling and hanging to running and lifting.

Why 4 weeks? Because sometimes we just need a reset. A place to start over to guide us. Can this program be repeated? Yes, repeat as many times as you like. You get it for a year. If you are interested in more programming, reach out to our coaches. They would be more than happy to help you reach your movement goals.

Improved mobility
Ground based movement helps improve and maintain our mobility and posture. Spending time on the ground makes movement off the ground easier.

Increased strength and ability
All movements are skills, and all skills can be improved upon. When we focus on continual improvement, we work towards unconscious competence. When we reach unconscious competence, we make movements skills look easy. For instance, when was the last time you thought about tying your shoelace? Why strength? Everything is easier the stronger you get.

Increased capacity
You never know when you'll have to run through the airport to catch your flight while carrying your bags. Training aerobic and anaerobic systems will help make sure if that ever happens you'll get there with time to spare and make it looks easy.

Increased movement opportunity and play
This four-week program includes ideas to get out and try some recreation-based movement. Hike, paddle, climb, game of tag with your kids etc. Movement practices should provide you with a base level of physical competency that allows you to age and explore adventurously (play). Look beyond the gym for opportunities to move. Balance on a rail or climb a tree because you can.

"This was the alternative I had been searching for. Rock adapts the program to meet your needs based on your level. I am nowhere near an athlete, never have been, but after attending MovNat classes with Rock, I have surprised myself with what I am able to do! I am stronger and more confident."
